gzip

I need to add below directives to apache. But I get 500 when I add these lines.

<LocationMatch "^/assets/.*$">
Header unset ETag
FileETag None
# RFC says only cache for 1 year
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 year"
</LocationMatch>

Additionally response is not gzipped when I add:

AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/css application/javascript application/x-javascript

Apache version is: Server version: Apache/2.2.22 (Unix)

App: rails 3.2 app

When I checked response&request for gzip problem, I see that browser requested gzip:

Accept-Encoding gzip, deflate

but response not gzipped.
